[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would say an MA in History is fairly useless without a specific specialization (ie Public History/Museums/Preservation), but is also a required degree to attain the PhD in History. [/quote] This is the degree you would have to teach history in schools or at the community college level.[/quote] In my public school district, the majority of the teachers have a Masters. Some went straight through, some started teaching with a BA and then got the masters, but it's becoming an expected part of the teaching profession.[/quote] It's because there are so many people with BA's in liberal arts, so a master's differentiates themselves. There's a reason teachers are supposedly paid so little -- supply and demand. There are so many people willing to do it for the wages they offer. If that was not the case, the wages would go up or we'd find schools devoid of teachers.[/quote]
